- The Trump administration added 20 countries and the Palestinian Authority to the list of travel restrictions to the U.S.
- Five countries now face a complete travel ban, while 15 others have new partial restrictions imposed.
- Exemptions are granted to valid visa holders, lawful permanent residents, and certain visa categories like diplomats and athletes.
- The administration cited national security, corruption, and vetting challenges as reasons for the expanded measures.
This expanded ban is not about national security but instead is another shameful attempt to demonize people simply for where they are from.— Laurie Ball Cooper, Vice President of U.S. Legal Programs at the International Refugee Assistance Project.
